U.S. Bank, National Assn. v. Madison

Summary

The court dismissed the appeal because certification had been improvidently granted and the parties had not presented the legal issues necessary to evaluate the Appellate Court’s reasoning. It concluded that the appeal mischaracterized the lower court’s holding and provided no useful basis for deciding whether an undisclosed foreclosure defense was estate property, constituted a misrepresentation of property value, or justified barring the defense. The court expressly took no position on the correctness of the Appellate Court’s decision.
